 (invited)\n\nOn Sunday, September 14, the 5th ministerial meeting of the 
 World Trade Organization (WTO) collapsed. What happened in Cancun that led 
 to the collapse? What were the policy debates between governments? What did 
 peoples' movements want? What did corporations want? What strategies and 
 tactics were used both inside and outside of the meeting that led to the 
 collapse? \nWhat worked on the streets? What worked in the suites? \n\nMost 
 importantly, how does this inform what will happen in Miami when the Free 
 Trade Area of the Americas (FTAA) ministerial takes place on November 
 20-21?\n\nThe collapse in Cancun is being used by the Bush Administration 
 to further justify its rejection of multilateralism in all forms. It is 
 therefore crucial to demonstrate that opposition in Cancun was against the 
 policies of corporate globalization, rather than just one of the many 
 institutions that enforce them. The FTAA ministerial in Miami is now even 
 more critical than before. It is both an opportunity to oppose the 
 expansion of corporate globalization and to demonstrate the that the 
 movement demanding real alternatives is growing and uniting 
 world-wide.\n\nPlease join us for this important discussion.\n\nQuestions?
